OK – I couldn’t resist doing one of these traffic thingies and probably will do more:). Wish the sticks were in my hands more often these days, but between evaluations, visits, court and paperwork, and a cold that knocked me down more than I care to admit, it’s been difficult. Am almost done with Brie’s scarf – really I am. In fact, I can’t wait … Continue reading Miscellany

Her pediatrician has diagnosed her with PDD, but what type – I’m thinking either NOS or Aspergers. Those are the two best options and even they do not inspire happiness. Evaluations at Kennedy Krieger are the next step and we may hear that … Continue reading Pervasive Developmental Disorder

What American accent do you have? Your Result: The Northeast Judging by how you talk you are probably from north Jersey, New York City, Connecticut or Rhode Island. Chances are, if you are from New York City (and not those other places) people would probably be able to tell if they actually heard you speak. Philadelphia The Inland North The Midland The South Boston The … Continue reading And my friends tell me I don’t have a New Yawk accent any maw!
